Dream
Team
The Dream Team 2025 is a group of proven, experienced leaders who center 1021 members at the heart of everything we do. We are the only members running who have secured $10 million for member professional and educational development. We have a track record of winning historic contracts in the face of budget shortfalls; and building community coalitions to hold elected leaders accountable. We deliver results through integrity, collective action, and collaboration.
In the coming years, SEIU 1021 members will face unprecedented challenges. The incoming presidential administration has promised deep cuts to the federal budget. This will trickle down to the state and local levels where our members will feel it, and our contracts will be under fire. We also face the threats of automation, mass deportation, and attacks on unions nationally. This is a time for solid, tested, and true leadership.
The Dream Team is ready to lead on Day 1 to tackle these challenges, backing our talk with collective action. To continue building the power of our union, we must break down silos, improve representation, and engage more members to take action. We believe that all members deserve respect, and our union is the best tool to champion workers on the job and in our communities.
Our priorities
The Dream Team 2025 is ready to lead on Day 1 to face the enormous challenges ahead, including deep federal cuts that will trickle down to the state and municipalities; the rise of automation; mass deportations; and attacks on unions nationally.
OUR TRACK RECORD
We Won Historic Contract Gains!
Over the last few years, SEIU 1021 members faced public budget shortfalls and employers trying to make cuts. Members of the Dream Team helped to win landmark contracts worth millions in well-deserved raises for local governments, nonprofits, courts, schools and colleges, hospitals, and healthcare agencies. Members across Northern California secured the biggest gains in decades.
We Secured $10 Million for Workforce Development!
Members’ jobs are at risk due to AI, automation and other modern-day threats. Partnering with SEIU 521, members of the Dream Team assisted in securing a $10 million grant for workforce development for our members. This was an unprecedented win that allowed over 600 members to get the training and education they needed to advance their careers.
We Build Community Coalitions!
Elected leaders are under great pressure to make cuts to our contracts, as billionaires dominate our economy. Members of the Dream Team helped to expand and deepened SEIU 1021 relationships with other unions and community-based organizations. This has increased our power and ability to hold elected leaders accountable on our contracts, while advancing policies that benefit all working families.
